Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour blend
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 0.75 cup Heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 large Egg
- 0.5 cup Powdered sugar (for glaze, optional)
- 1 tablespoon Milk (for glaze, optional)
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground cinnamon (for glaze, optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingertips to work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
In a separate bowl, combine the heavy cream, vanilla extract, and egg. Beat well to combine.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture and stir until just combined. The dough should be moist but not sticky.
Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently for a few seconds to bring it together.
Pat the dough into a circle about 1-inch thick and cut it into 8 wedges.
Place the scones onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool on a wire rack.
For the optional glaze, mix powdered sugar, milk, and ground cinnamon in a small bowl until the glaze is smooth and runny.
Drizzle the glaze over the cooled scones before serving.
